Periodic deposit
Periodic deposit is the investment made in form of equal deposits over a time period regularly. Each deposit recurs after a time interval. Such an investment is made to achieve a pre-planned financial objective and/or when the capital to invest is less.
In simpler words, periodic deposit is a deposit recurring on a periodic basis. Investment is made over the period, grows over the period and matures at the end of the period.
